This is a serious-build kit, not a mild weekend refresh - expect a comprehensive front and rear suspension overhaul.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFront components use Belltech's drop spindle design to achieve the front portion of this range while maintaining correct steering geometry, and the rear pairs de-arched springs with additional drop hardware to reach up to 8 inches of rear drop depending on your exact configuration. Because both ends are engineered together as a system, you avoid the mismatched geometry issues that come from piecing together unrelated front and rear components separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGiven the depth of this drop, plan on supporting modifications as part of the full build - a rear frame C-notch is very likely necessary at the upper end of this range, along with a carrier bearing relocator or driveshaft work if paired with axle relocation, plus shocks and brake lines sized correctly for this ride height. This is best approached as a complete build project, either by an experienced DIYer or a shop specializing in aggressive lowered trucks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe payoff is a dramatic, frame-hugging stance on your C2500 that few other bolt-on solutions can match at this price point. If you're building toward a serious show or slammed daily driver, this kit is a strong foundation - just budget time and additional supporting parts for the complete install rather than expecting a simple afternoon bolt-in.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA full front-end alignment and pinion angle check are required after install, along with careful inspection of all clearances at full suspension compression before driving.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Belltech","offers":[{"title":"1990-1996 \/ No Shocks","offer_id":58145177010336,"sku":"BT-C2500-58DROP-9096-NOSHOCK","price":1486.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1990-1996 \/ Nitro Drop Shocks","offer_id":58145177043104,"sku":"BT-C2500-58DROP-9096-NITRO","price":1746.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1990-1996 \/ Street Performance Shocks","offer_id":58145177075872,"sku":"BT-C2500-58DROP-9096-SP","price":1805.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1997-2000 \/ No Shocks","offer_id":58145177108640,"sku":"BT-C2500-58DROP-9700-NOSHOCK","price":1481.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1997-2000 \/ Nitro Drop Shocks","offer_id":58145177141408,"sku":"BT-C2500-58DROP-9700-NITRO","price":1741.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1997-2000 \/ Street Performance Shocks","offer_id":58145177174176,"sku":"BT-C2500-58DROP-9700-SP","price":1800.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/9720\/2848\/files\/bt_717_001_640_4__36992.1689098418.jpg?v=1783270001","url":"https:\/\/obsrevivalparts.com\/products\/belltech-5-8-drop-kit-1988-2000-chevy-gmc-c2500","provider":"OBS Revival Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
